Born in Australia, Sue spent her teenage years with her family in Europe and went to Art College in England. She pursued her passion for jewellery making, first at a Gold and Silversmithing School in Holland, and completed her qualifications at RMIT upon her return.
She began making and exhibiting her own jewellery, which has always been inspired by botanical form and natural materials. She is particularly drawn to the philosophy and aesthetic of the Arts and Crafts movement, which emerged in the 1880’s as a reaction against a decline in standards associated with manufacturing and mass production.
Sue believes in the integrity of the handmade and does not abide by any discrimination between art and craft. With an emphasis on simplicity of design, organic line and form, she works predominantly in silver, sometimes incorporating carved wood and semi-precious stones.
